To do this, she incorporated many elements into the show that subverted stereotypes of girls, such as diverse personalities, character flaws and personality disorders, the message that friends can be different and can get into arguments but still be friends, and the idea that girls should not be limited by what others say they can or can not do. With the chance to work on My Little Pony, one of her favorite childhood toys, she hoped to prove that "cartoons for girls don't have to be a puddle of smooshy, cutesy-wootsy, goody-two-shoeness". She was disappointed that what she thought of the toys at the time was nothing like the animated shows, in which the characters, according to her, "had endless tea parties, giggled over nothing and defeated villains by either sharing with them or crying". Faust said she was "extremely skeptical" about taking the job at first because she had always found shows based on girls' toys to be boring and unrelatable. Hasbro initially hired Faust to create a pitch bible for the show, allowing her to get additional help with conceptualization.
#List of my little pony friendship is magic songs series
Friendship is Magic characters appear in numerous spin-off franchise media, including a comic book series, a Gameloft My Little Pony video game, a children's book series, a theatrical film adaptation and a spin-off film series titled My Little Pony: Equestria Girls, where several Friendship is Magic characters are re-envisioned as humans in a high school setting. The characters have been generally well-received by television critics and parental groups, and are cited as one of the reasons the series' older fans, called " bronies", became attracted to the show. An extensive cast of over 200 minor and guest characters, designated as "background ponies", are used to fill out crowd scenes and serve as visual gags in episodes. Beginning in season eight, the leaders of Equestria's allied nations send five of their heirs to Equestria to receive an education from Twilight. Since season five, the reformed villain Starlight Glimmer becomes Twilight's protégée. Since season three, the reformed villain Discord becomes a reluctant ally of the Mane Six. The alicorn princesses (Celestia, Luna and Cadance) frequently aid the Mane Six in their service to the inhabitants of Equestria. This includes a trio of younger ponies (Apple Bloom, Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle) who call themselves the "Cutie Mark Crusaders" and share adventures trying to discover their talents in life and receive their "cutie marks" until the season five episode "Crusaders of the Lost Mark", where they finally receive their cutie marks. Main characters aside, every season has episodes focused on the exploits of recurring characters. This eventually leads to Twilight ascending and becoming an alicorn princess. The six ponies-collectively known as the "Mane Six"-share adventures, battle villains and help out other residents of Ponyville, while working out the troublesome moments in their own friendships. Each represents a different facet of friendship, and Twilight discovers herself to be a key part of the magical artifacts known as the Elements of Harmony.
Twilight becomes best friends with five other ponies: earth ponies Applejack and Pinkie Pie, pegasi Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy, and unicorn Rarity. The series follows a studious unicorn named Twilight Sparkle and Spike, her baby dragon assistant, as her mentor Princess Celestia guides her to learn about friendship in the town of Ponyville.
The series premiered on October 10, 2010, in the United States on the Hub Network cable channel, which was rebranded as Discovery Family on October 13, 2014. The series features characters and settings developed by Lauren Faust, who sought to create more in-depth characters than the stereotypical "girly" icons used in previous iterations of the franchise.
This is a list of characters from My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, an animated television series based on the My Little Pony toyline created by American toy manufacturer and multimedia company Hasbro.
